Speaking to the press, Mr. Wijeyalal had said that it would be easy to serve the people only if he puts aside his political beliefs while holding the post of Governor.
"There were several incidents which put the Eastern Province in the spotlight over the last few weeks. Therefore, it is important to work with extreme precaution," the Governor said.
